TAT Technologies Reports Continued Improvement in Q3 2017


GEDERA, Israel, Nov. 15, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- TAT Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: TATT) ("TAT" or the "Company"), a leading provider of products and services to the commercial and military aerospace and ground defense industries, reported today its unaudited results for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2017.

Key Financial Highlights:

  Mr. Igal Zamir, CEO and President of TAT Technologies stated, "We continue to see consistent improvement in the company's financial performance. Revenues continue to grow organically due to the company's sales and marketing efforts, its strong position in its markets and the continued strength in the Aerospace industry. The company is expected to start deliveries related to the recently awarded APU MRO contract during Q4/17. Operational improvements that have been implemented resulted in solid and stable profitability. The company continues to pursue growth initiatives, both organic and strategic and further improve its profitability."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company also presents a Non-GAAP presentation of Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA.  The adjustments to the Company's GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of the Company's underlying operational results, trends and performance.  Non-GAAP Net Income excludes changes, income or losses, as applicable, related to one or more of the following: (1) share-based compensation expenses and/or (2) certain tax impact and/or and/or (3) share in results of equity investment of affiliated companies. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income excluding the impact of: the Company's share in results of affiliated companies, share-based compensation, taxes on income, financial (expenses) income, net, and depreciation and amortization.  Non-GAAP Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA, however, should not be considered as alternatives to net income and operating income for the period and may not be indicative of the historic operating results of the Company; nor they are meant to be predictive of potential future results.  Non-GAAP Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures for other companies. See reconciliation of GAAP Net Income to Non-GAAP Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA in pages 9 and 13 below.
